    HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

    Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

    We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

    Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

    We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

    As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

    No photos but some info re breeder.
    Gardeners' chronicle, horticultural trade journal, Part 2 Page 93
    1897
    Hybrid perpetual Roses, twenty-four distinct varieties,
    were best from Mr. Ralph Crossling, and Mr. Stephen Treseder.
    Twelve distinct varieties of Teas- Both competitors staged
    some excellent blooms, and Mr. Treseder was awarded a
    Certificate of Merit for his new Rose, Mrs. Stephen Treseder.

    128 THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE.
    August 21, 1897.
    Mr. Treseder showed us a
    white Tea, which he described as a sport from Anna
    Olivier. The sport occurred in his nursery a year
    or two ago, and, like most sports, in every particular
    but colour of flower it appears to resemble the parent
    plant. The blooms are very pretty, slightly lemon-
    coloured in the centre, and the plants were covered
    with them.

    Oh wow ! That description sounds just like the Nannup, Western Australia sport "Blanche Roberts" - slightly lemon coloured in the center. Thank you Sandie. As usual you have come up with the good "goods". Helpmefind has been able to change the breeder too, from bred by G. Paul to: Discovered by Stephen Treseder, and introduced by Paul.

    I am so excited about this sport but we had better watch it for two years before merging "Blanche Roberts" into 'Mrs. Stephen Treseder'. I wonder would that be the way to go? In Australia it was last heard of in 1948, and now reappeared as a sport on .... that yella thing .....in 2010.
